While appearing on MSNBC with far left radical pundit Lawrence O'Donnell, Lt. Col. Allen West (R-FL) was asked to respond to quotes attributed to him about Barack Obama. Among them were West's claims that Obama was the 'dumbest person walking around in America right now' and 'I absolutely can't stand him (Obama).' West didn't deny the quotes or walk them back. O'Donnell then tried to get West to apologize for saying Obama should put himself in harm's way when visiting troops overseas. When he refused to do so, O'Donnell somehow twisted West's last statement into an apology that didn't exist.
West's response? Eye roll.
Awesome. Via HapBlog:
Sir, let me make sure I understand you. You are a U.S. Congressman yet, you equate intelligence with putting ones self in harm's way?
